Shame- The act of Draupadi's Chir-haran (Mahabharat)

Caption Of Artwork: This acrylic painting vividly depicts the tragic episode of Draupadi's "chir-haran" from the Mahabharata. The Pandavas are portrayed with eyes shut in shame, tears evident beneath their eyelids, while the Kauravas gaze lustfully at Draupadi. Above them, a peacock feather symbolizes Lord Krishna's intervention, extending the length of Draupadi's sari to protect her honor.
